While the French REMAKE has been broadcast on M6 (with big star Franck Dubosc), a Belgian production company has bought the rights to produce it in Flemish !
2 168 400 viewers !!! (in a market of only 7 million people / French-speaking Canada ) watched the first episode of the 3rd Season of « My Life » !

Target 18-34 years old : a record 52% for « My Life » (while the average market share of the network (TVA) is only 24% !).

« My Life » (32x 30’) follows (fiction) the crazy life of Martin Matte, a famous stand up comedian in Canada (and you can adapt it with a local celebrity for your market)

CRAZY COW and Dewereldvrede announced today that they have inked a deal for the worldwide distribution of the series The Natives.

Synopsis : Local stand-up comedian Freddy De Vadder flees to a picturesque village called Bevergem. Why? Nobody knows. He doesn’t talk about it. The contrast between him and the grotesque residents could not be greater. In anticipation of the annual town festival, tempers become frayed. But Freddy doesn’t care: he just hopes his hide-out is secure

The Natives is a huge succes on the public television VRT, attracting 4 (!!!) times the average market share of the nework !

The Belgian remake of the Dutch movie “The Longing” will be in theatres in November 22 !

Synopsis : When the very attractive Brigitte shows up at publisher Goudemondt with a horrible manuscript, the brothers Marc and Boudewijn (directors of the ailing family-publisher) sense possibilities. With their eye on the media they make her switch roles with an unsightly and stuttering author of a literary masterpiece. The trick works; the book becomes both artistically and financially a huge success, but the initial agreement between all parties overturns into a bitter strife for acknowledgement. To the heat of the battle fall many victims, but eventually Brigitte and Marc will find each other.
